Description
Currently, Rev News URLs follow the format:
/rev_news/:year/:month/:day/:title/
For example:
https://git.github.io/rev_news/2025/02/28/edition-120/
I think simplifying them to /rev_news/:title/ would help people access editions directly without needing to go through the archive.
For example:
https://git.github.io/rev_news/edition-120/
Additionally, I think it would be helpful to add "Previous" and "Next" links at the bottom of each Rev News edition. This would allow readers to easily move between editions without manually searching for them.

Research direction
Start by locating the Rev News edition template and the configuration that produces its current date-based URLs. Check how editions are ordered, then determine where the archive navigation is rendered. Done means editions use the proposed title-based URLs and each edition exposes working Previous and Next links.
